- The Games I play.
I play the following games
Rounders, Hide-and-go-seek, Dan-Dan-thread-the-needle, Lucenie, Corners, Forfeits, Penance, Jenny-Joe, Turkey, Deaf-and-Dumb-band, Ducks-and-Drakes, Thimble-appear, Frog-in-the-Wall, Donkey, Ring-a-Ring-a-Rosy, Pooka-doll, and Running, Tip the coal, King of the Castle. I amuse myself in certain ways at different times of the year. I go birdnesting in the Spring. In the Harvest I go Blackberry-picking, and fruit-picking. In the Winter we go sliding and snow-balling. I gather flowers in the Summer and make daisy-chains, and Primrose-chains.
